Oh gosh, definitely. Whenever I make a character in any RPG, single player or not, I end up associating songs with them.

My GW2 character had an entire playlist for her-- who I still love and mourn every day, gosh I wish the game itself was better so I could bring myself to play as much as I used to and RP her, I can't even listen to any of the songs I chose for it now without getting really sad about it.

So I like to pick out tunes for my FFXIV characters. I listen to a little bit of everything hoping I hit on something that's good for someone, but so far I've only found songs for Shoshopu. A lot of them are from FFXI, ironically enough, and just came into my mind immediately once I started putting her story together. All instrumentals, the best kind of mood music for me, because if a song has lyrics, if they're not 100% correct it's very distracting.

I'm putting these in a spoiler tag gdi because I can't just post them as hyperlinks because they're YouTube videos apparently!!
Battalia Downs and Sarutabaruta are traveling music as she and her family roam the deserts of Thanalan.

Rabao whenever they stop at a settlement to resupply and trade, especially if they head into Southern Thanalan.

The Bustle of the Capitol (Whitegate) whenever Shoshopu visited Ul'dah for the first time as a child, in its pre-Calamity glory.

The Comic Wheel (West Sarutabaruta S) is... well, it hasn't happened yet, but the story I have in mind involves her father, and her Roegadyn partner Fyrilsunn.

And this is technically a Shopusunn-ship song, but "Ends of the Earth" by Lord Huron really evokes to me the image of Shoshopu riding her tortoise beneath the endless starry skies of the desert. The instrumentals are absolutely lovely!
